            Bug ID: 401015
           Summary: Check that the name of the types exported to QML with
                    qmlRegisterType starts uppercase
           Product: clazy

SUMMARY

The name of the types exported to QML shall start with upper case letter, see:
http://doc.qt.io/
qt-5/qtqml-typesystem-objecttypes.html
"... the type name must begin with an uppercase letter in order to be declared
as a QML object type in a QML file." It would be useful if the clazy would
catch these errors and optionally would offer a quickfix. I have wasted 3
evenings on debugging such an issue and I was not the only one who faced
similar issue.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a QML plugin with the QtCreator's Qt Quick 2 Extension project wizard
and select a lower case Class name
2. Ensure that the generated qmlRegisterType<asdasd>(uri, 1, 0, "asdasd");
exports with lower case 
3. Run clazy

OBSERVED RESULT
clazy did not reports any error

EXPECTED RESULT
clazy should report error

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: all
MacOS:  all
Linux/KDE Plasma:  all
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: n/a
KDE Frameworks Version: n/a
Qt Version: n/a

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Fix for the QtCreator's wizard is on it's way:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/245440/
With some guidance I can came up with a patch to clazy as well.
